Hi Rohit,

this was discussed, but (as usual in the syslog-wg) got bogged down.
Having such a mib would definitely useful, much more than the counters.
We've resorted to defining our own [1]. Previously, I think, we used
Cisco's so it looks like you are going to try get it some more up to the
standards?

[1] rsyslog (and other rsyslog products) emit snmp traps based on syslog
messages. You can find it down in the description of the trap sender:
